About our Regular Meditation Sessions

We usually start by finding a comfortable meditation posture, on a chair or on cushions, followed by a led body awareness meditation to help us settle into the present moment. Then a short, led meditation either focussing on mindfulness with the breath, or on developing kindness and positivity towards ourselves and others. Read more about meditation

The sessions give an idea of what our longer meditation courses cover and are suitable for total beginners, but they are also an opportunity to meditate in a led group, and you are very welcome to come just once or as often as you like. They run every weekday lunchtime, Monday to Friday, as well as on Tuesdays, Wednesdays and Thursdays in the early evening. You don't need to bring anything apart from yourself or wear anything special, but you might want some socks as we take our shoes off in the meditation halls.
